In a glass with a splash of water...sometimes with ice. Some times in a shot glass. If I'm tailgating, possibly straight from the bottle.
Hey! That looks just like my bottle!?!?!? WTH

Sorry for the rough seas with the health issues. Prayers for you all.Hi guys.
Been away for a while as life has gotten in the way of Dis time.
quick recap:
It's been a wild couple of months around here. Back in October we were at our church group's Halloween party when I received a call that my Dad had a heart attack. He was in Victoria, BC visiting family when his heart stopped. The EMTs got to him within 5 minutes and he is now recovering. I got on a plane that night to head out as we were unsure of the outcome. Turns out he has a defib issue (electrical, not muscular or vascular) and as such now has a pacemaker/defibulator installed. My uncle was right there and started CPR and as such Dad is recovering from some broken ribs and that is about all.
Back here at home, MIL apparently has been suffering from mini strokes and it's uncertain if there is long term damage but DW has been worried about this. Of course MIL still hasn't scheduled a Neuro appointment and this is causing rifts in their small family. (They only have MIL, FIL, DW and SIL, with no extended family).
Mele kalikimaka!On the positive side of the ledger, our girls are all doing well (even DD3 and her kidney/allergy issues). School is good for them, DW is doing well and work has been going well. I've had a very successful year at work and we are preparing for Christmas in Hawaii. (The girls will be there for 3+ weeks and I get 2 weeks).

Sorry, you're over qualified.
Not required but preferred.
BTW, where are you in DE? We vacation at Bethany Beach every summer. And my best friend from high school went to Goldie Beacom College in Wilmington. His bro still lives there. He used to work for GM before the plant closed down a few years ago.

Worked last night and I'm working again tonight. No Makers Mark in my future... plus I'm not sure how any of you drink that.

Something that has been unavailable to me since about 97.
Heck, I ain’t even seen a cost-of-living adjustment since 07.
Perfect. You qualify. There's no pay or benefits and the hours are long, but I'm a great manager. So you'd have that going for ya.

Sorry to hear about the family health situations - prayers especially at this time of year. Enjoy the time on the islands, are you staying at Aulani by chance?
Prayers being sent for your Dad and MIL. And just because, a little pixie dustixiedust:as well.
Yikes. Prayers for everyone involved.
Umm... you're doing it wrong.
Prayers for your dad and MIL. Safe travels to Hawaii!!
Sorry for the rough seas with the health issues. Prayers for you all.
Mele kalikimaka!
Holy cow. That's quite a lot of drama, even more than I would have wished upon you. I hope the medical issues get worked out. And enjoy the break! If anyone deserves less time in Hawaii than the rest of your family, it's you.
Well, I sure am glad Brian's back.
Prayers for your family as well.
Glad I can count on my nemesis for some right old humble pie.

My hoop team (not DD) opens the season tonight against the team that knocked DD out of the playoffs last year. The girls are playing well and I'm looking forward to a little revenge, even if it's just an early season game. DD plays tomorrow and then we have a Christmas party that a friend has each year. Pretty much one of the largest parties I have ever been to. Horse drawn carriage rides, games and activities for the kids, bon fire and good people. In case I forget later. Have a good weekend guys.
